The Things I Want Most
It was a small note buried in the file of a deeply troubled eleven-year-old boy -- a plea for a normal life Rich and Sue Miniter couldn't ignore:
The Miniters heard in that simple note the voice of a frightened child who wanted what all children want and need: someone to love who would love them in return. So they brought Mike home to the cozy country inn they'd restored and managed in rural upstate New York. There, over the next year, they would try to make Mike's dream come true. But first they would have to work through the fear, anger, and distrust that accompanied this boy who had lived his whole life with the label "severely emotionally disturbed". For the biggest obstacle to Mike's happiness was Mike himself, who gave the Miniters every reason to give up but one -- the power of love.
